"I absolutely loved the vintage ambiance of this restaurant. It transported me back to the 70s in the best way possible. When we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by a waitress named Tammy, who had a comforting motherly presence that made us feel right at home. Tammy truly deserves a perfect 10 out of 10 - she is a rock star! We tried the PBB Omelette, the Western Omelette, and Eggs Hash. All three dishes came with delicious home fries, coffee, and three different types of toast (wheat, English muffin, and sourdough). The Eggs Hash was above average, with a perfectly grilled crust on both sides and a good balance of beef and potatoes. I would rate it a 6 out of 10 for beef enthusiasts like myself. The Western Omelette was outstanding, with just the right amount of peppers, onions, cheese, and high-quality ham. The eggs were perfectly moist, earning this dish a score of 8.5 out of 10. The PBB Omelette, filled with ham, bacon, sausage, cheese, tomatoes, peppers, and onions, was also a delightful experience. The crispy bacon, quality ham and sausage, and flavorful vegetables made it an 8.5 out of 10. The coffee was the best we've ever had at a diner, and it seemed like it never stopped flowing thanks to attentive Tammy. The locals at the restaurant were incredibly friendly and welcoming. We will definitely be returning. If you love vintage diners, delicious food, and top-notch service, this is the perfect spot for you!"

"We drove 30 minutes in Sleet to go to breakfast for what would have eaten the first time in a restaurant in months (2020). We went up and as we told my son from the back seat, "Oops, I forgot my shoes." Needless to say that we have finished ordering online. We waited another 20 minutes to get the food and we were both hungry and impatient. The food was ready when we raised and it was a simple process. We decided to drive into a park to eat and realize that we don't get forks with our five orders of pancakes. It was disappointing. The food wasn't. It is hard to judge a restaurant based on take-out, but also after driving for a few minutes after pickup and dig with our fingers (also no napkins in the bags) we were happy to enjoy a good meal. Fortunately, we found a spoil in the car (a new one) and so my husband could enjoy the land fried steak he got. He said the severity was good. He's Picky, so, thumb up! I had the bacado and loved the taste. I was worried about soggy tomatoes, but I didn't have this problem. I have geese as a side — delicious! I just added butter, the taste was simple and cozy. I didn't try the French toast that one of my children had, but he took it down and it looked really delicious. We're back for more. Hopefully it will be a more civilized experience for us next time. Note: The working restaurants placed on orders are incredible. We appreciate the wrapped syrup and felt bad for ordering whip cream on the pancakes to see how it had to be packaged separately from the pancake order. We appreciate these efforts. We are sorry for the additional costs and time that this requires. Going the packaging was excellent and we realize that this affects the quality of our good experience."
